Wordless(ish) Wednesday

I was trying to think of something clever and entertaining to put up today and Jackson gave me this. I should have known, he'd never let me down :)

Wordless(ish) Wednesday

A couple of my friends do this on their blogs and I didn't know if I could commit to a post each Wednesday, but I felt like this was the perfect photo to give it a try!

Jackson just couldn't decide on a movie.....

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY JACKSON!!!!!!!!!!

I CANNOT believe I'm writing about Jackson's first birthday! It really doesn't seem like a year ago, at this time, he was still inside. It's amazing how someone so small can change your life so much. This has been a year filled with love, admiration, amazement, and a few challenges :) We wouldn't change ONE.THING. We love you, Jackson Thomas, more than you'll ever know!!

I'm so glad we've shared our journey with all of you. Here's a look back at the last year.

Man on the Edge

Or verge, I guess I really should say. Jackson is getting pretty close to taking that first step! But in the mean time, he's found he can still get pretty much any where he wants to go. He just has to do it like a man scaling a building, which is why I refer to him as the man on the edge.
I think this is pretty hilarious. And if he really wants something, he can MOVE! He's been making his way around the house like this for about a month now and I have to say I think it's a crack up that now, when you hold his hand and he wants to walk straight forward, he sometimes turns to the side and side-steps as if he's walking on the wall!
